These fantastic miniatures of the Bretonnian forces for Warhammer: The Old World were on display at Warhammer World.

Marauder Destroyer
The Marauder Destroyer variant was developed during the second war for Armageddon after heavy losses in the Naval airforces.
Orkish dominance of the skies over certain areas of Armageddon forced the few remaining Marauders to be refitted to operate at night, flying at extremely low level where they could evade detection.
Their new heavier weapon payload made anything which got in the way seriously regret it!
This is a really nice model, I really like the paint job on this. I would like to be able to paint like this if I could. I certainly don’t have both the skills and the airbrush to make this happen.
Skaven over the years
In Warhammer World was a range of Skaven miniatures from across the years.
I realise looking at the catalogue entry for the original Skaven, the C47 Chaos Ratmen that. bought some of these when they first came out. There are some photographs in the Skaven Gallery.
White Scars
Across the Warhammer World displays were various armoured vehicles of the White Scars Space Marine chapter.
The Repulsor is an Imperial anti-gravitic main battle tank intended to provide armoured support for the Primaris Space Marines of many different Chapters. This is a White Scars Primaris Repulsor.
The Stormtalon Gunship serves the armies of the Adeptus Astartes as both an interceptor and ground-attack craft. It is fast enough to engage all but the swiftest of enemies, and sufficiently well-armed to reduce the chosen foe to a mangle of twisted wreckage and ruined flesh.
The Hammerstrike excels at rooting out enemies from trench and bunker networks. Sweeping low over the battlefield, it employs searing melta blasts and volleys of rockets to crack the foe’s defence lines wide open.
Rynn’s World
The Rynn’s World diorama was on display at Warhammer World. Inspired by the artwork from the original Warhammer 40000 Rogue Trader rulebook, this diorama shows the Crimson Fists making a heroic last stand against hordes of Orks.
Ork Dread
Armoured vehicles of the Ultramarines
Across the Warhammer World displays were various armoured vehicles of the Ultramarines Space Marine chapter.
The Gladiator Valiant lays down blistering volleys of fire as its escorts transports or supports infantry in ferocious fighting, crossing rushing watercourses, sucking marshlands and bubbling lava with equal ease. Its twin las-talons spit death at the foe, making short work of enemy armour and cracking open fortified positions.
Like the Predator is to a Rhino, the design of the Gladiator is based upon that of an Impulsor’s chassis, and has been designed to serve as a front line battle tank rather than a transport vehicle.
As the main surface-to-air tank, the Hunter scours the the skies of enemy bombers and fighter craft with its skyspear missile launcher.
The primary weapon of the Space Marine Stalker is the skyspear missile launcher. There are also options to include re-inforced armour on the sides of the tank, as well as pneumatic pins along the base.
The Stalker wields two independently targeting rotary autocannons that fill the air with armour piercing death so that no foe is safe in Imperial air space.
The Invader ATV is a highly flexible all-terrain vehicle, perfectly adapted to an aggressive reconnaissance role. Outfitted with either a multi-melta or an onslaught gatling cannon, it can rapidly deliver punishing fire against vulnerable parts of the enemy line, or swiftly engage and destroy scouting elements of opposing forces.
Not quite a vehicle, but the Hammerfall Bunker was also in the displays. Hammerfall Bunkers are launched from Space Marine warships in the same manner as Drop Pods. Automated area-denial assets crewed by hard-wired servitors, they have all kinds of battlefield roles, including securing beachheads, hampering enemy assaults and wreaking havoc behind the foe’s lines.
The Repulsor Executioner is the most heavily armed battle tank available to the Adeptus Astartes, with a choice of murderously powerful, primary turret-mounted weapon – a macro plasma incinerator or heavy laser destructor – supported by a coaxial heavy onslaught gatling cannon.
This was an Attack Bike.
The Stormtalon Gunship serves the armies of the Adeptus Astartes as both an interceptor and ground-attack craft. It is fast enough to engage all but the swiftest of enemies, and sufficiently well-armed to reduce the chosen foe to a mangle of twisted wreckage and ruined flesh. The tide of many a battle has turned with the thunderbolt descent of a Stormtalon Gunship from the war-torn skies.
Alongside the vehicles was this Assault Space Marine.
The Battle of Khendrel IV
In this diorama at Warhammer World the Dark Angels are fighting to reclaim the industrial world of Khendrel IV from the clutches of the Death Guard.

Deredeo Pattern Dreadnought
These Deredeo pattern Dreadnoughts were in the displays at Warhammer World.
The Deredeo pattern Dreadnought is a dedicated heavy support frame, though it shares many core components and systems with the more general assault-based Contemptor class.
Imperial Fists Deredeo Dreadnought with Boreas air defence missiles.
Initially deployed in limited numbers to each of the Legions due to difficulties in its manufacture, its durability and firepower saw demand for the Deredeo pattern dramatically increase after the outbreak of the Horus Heresy.
Legion Sabre Strike Tank
The Legiones Astartes use the Sabre Strike Tank for attacking enemy targets and destroying them before they become a threat.
The Sabre Strike Tank is fast rugged and heavily armed, this speed allows them to out-manoeuvre and evade counter-attacks.
Land Raider Proteus
The Land Raider is regarded by many as the finest armoured fighting vehicle of its class in the Imperium’s arsenal, and is the mainstay battle tank of the Space Marine Legions.
It is a phenomenally powerful war machine, its multi-layered composite armour and reinforced hull all but impervious to even heavy weapons, being a sealed unit designed to resist enemy attack from any approach.
Intended to serve in almost any environment as both war machine and exploration vehicle, it can operate freely in war zones ranging from acid swamps to rad-deserts without any noticeable impediment to its performance, and can even operate in hard vacuum, ensuring there is no open battlefield on which its armoured wrath cannot be unleashed.
This is an Ultramarines Land Raider Proteus.
Those of us who have been playing Warhammer 40K since it was first released will recognise this model. It is of course a new version of the original Land Raider that was released back in 1987 following the release of the 1st edition of Warhammer 40,000, Rogue Trader. Forge World released a resin version a fair few years ago, and since then, a plastic version of the kit has been released as part of The Horus Heresy range.
